If Pandora is from the story of Pandora's Box and the Phantom Stranger is none other than the betrayer of Christ, Judas. I have a suspicion that The Question might be another famed scripture character. I suspect that due to what he said when he was put on trial, that the Question could be Julius Caesar.

When i just read a preview about how he was punished to wonder the earth always asking questions i said, Adam then! The first sin? The one that sent man out of paradise and onto their own. His crime, tasting the fruit of knowledge. It would work perfectly for his character and wonderful metaphors. But this whole rise to power thing threw me for a loop.

The first issue of pandora pissed me off because the phantom stranger is said to be judas, but he was punished years before that would have been plausible, unless they were taken from differen points in time.
